Plot
As described in a film magazine review, Jane Maynard opens a mission in the New York City slums in the memory of philanthropist Bland Hendricks which uses the motto "My Neighbor is Perfect." She welcomes outcasts and faith cures are made. Michael Anstell, the son of a millionaire, is attracted to Jane. His father employs reporter Tom Barnett to ridicule the mission, but Tom becomes a convert. Old John Anstell then backs the mission, believing that, in the name of reform, he can control the world. Detected, his son Michael is killed by a mob. Tom Barnett and Jane Maynard carry on the mission's work.
